Officials are probing how a 51-year-old highway bridge came to collapse in the Italian port city of Genoa yesterday, killing at least 26 people and injuring 16 others as it sent dozens of vehicles tumbling into a heap of concrete and twisted steel.

Two charged after Melbourne soccer brawl

Two men have been charged after soccer fans clashed ahead of an A-League clash in Melbourne.

At least four people were injured, including a man aged in his 20s who was hospitalised with an arm injury, as supporter groups used metal bars, sticks and chairs as weapons ahead of the clash between Melbourne Victory and Western Sydney Wanderers on Saturday.

Victorian Police said on Sunday two men, both from NSW, had been charged.

A 23-year-old was charged with conduct endangering serious injury and discharging a missile, stemming from the brawl.

A 29-year-old was charged with conduct endangering injury for actions inside AAMI Park.

Both men will appear in Melbourne Magistrates Court on April 14 and Victoria Police assistant commissioner Andrew Crisp warned more arrests would come as police reviewed closed-circuit television footage.
